Open Play
What is Glowbug’s Playhouse?
Our Playhouse is a place where kids can truly just be kids. They are encouraged to move around, be active, & explore the many toys & learning manipulatives that spark their curiosity!
At Glowbug's Playhouse, we offer educational and extracurricular opportunities for all students, whether homeschooled or educated in a traditional setting. We believe that "Play" is a child's work, and they learn best through play. We want to provide the opportunities for them to explore things they might not be able to, otherwise, and do so in a safe & supervised way.
What do we mean by “Open Play”?
Open Play refers to any time that our Playhouse is Open for the Public to Come & Play. We are not a licensed childcare facility, so WE DO REQUIRE that children are accompanied by a grownup when they come to Open Play.
The only exceptions to this rule are our After-School Tutoring Program, our Classes, & our Mini-Camps where we have a Licensing Exemption from the State Health Department. For those events, we have a full schedule of activities to fill our time & staff available to supervise children adequately.
We encourage parents, grandparents, babysitters, or other grownups that bring children to our playhouse to join in and play with them. We also know that sometimes it’s nice to have a place to sit and relax or work on something for a bit while the kids play freely on their own. As long as the grownup is present and supervising the child(ren) they brought with them, it’s cool with us!
As our business grows and Open Play Times get busier, it’s our goal to have additional staff members present that will assist with the supervision of children & playing with them as well.
Homeschool Friday - February 3rd
Once-a-Month Classes for Mamas
Both of these classes meet once each month through December 2023. Each of these classes are priced at $15/each. They are totally separate from each other, but they aren’t meant to be stand-alone classes as the topics will be build on each other from month to month. To get the most benefit from either one, we recommend that you commit to do them for the full year and come to as many meetings as you can.
This is a discussion-based class, and we’ll have a new topic each month. There is power in community & joining together with other ladies. Every family is different, but you might just learn a tip or trick from another family that just so happens to be perfect for yours as well! With each topic, we’ll discuss what works for our families and what doesn’t, and then we’ll have four weekly challenges to go home and work on until we meet again the following month.
Go ahead and grab the book & read Part 1 & the chapters for the month of “January” and “Feburary” for us to discuss at our next meeting. After this month, we’ll be reading and discussing just one chapter a month so it’s totally doable.
Also, this is a “kid-free” class. We want you to be truly able to relax, sip coffee or tea, and have some good & probably much-needed girl talk for an hour or so.
We are so excited to offer these awesome classes! If you are new to Glowbug’s Playhouse, you can register here. If you’re already in our Procare System, just hit reply to let us know what you’d like to register for.
